Your health and rest are more important right now. The first few weeks are over-whelming. I've been there. My mom stayed with me for the first 4 weeks after having my baby girl and when she left I cried and cried because I was afraid I would not be able to look after her on my own. But I managed! She is now 8 months old. Time flies and before you know it your baby will be sitting in the floor entertaining himself with his toys. You will be tired like you've never experienced tired before, but it will pass. Hang in there and enjoy these few weeks when your baby depends on you for everything! Congrats on your baby boy and good luck!

xolblondieox - 951 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Aww it will be ok. I feel for you. I was all alone with my twins just 5 days postpartum, and I had a c-section. We had two new babies to feed and take care of, so hubby needed to get back as quickly as possible. It was tough, no lie. I had nearly no help except for the occasional drop in, but those were brief. Nap when the baby naps and leave housework for hubby in the beginning. I got lucky and my babes slept 12 hours at night at just 7 weeks old...maybe that will happen to you too! Another thing that really helped me (my saving grace!) was schedule, schedule, schedule! I had them on a schedule nearly from birth. They always ate and napped at the same times. This really helped them and me! They knew what to expect and became good sleepers and eaters, and I knew that naptime was soon to come and I was going to get a break! I ran the roost, not them LOL. Best of luck to you! I see that we are nearly the same age...take advantage of that youthful energy LOL :o)

I'm due in 10 weeks & i'm kind of worried about being here by myself with a new baby too, but i think i'll be ok. I can call someone or if something happens we only live like 3 minutes away from a hospital.Just calling someone & talking to them while you're alone if you're stressing can help you feel better. I hope your leg gets better & good luck :)

pedram68 - 951 days ago thanx alot u guys are really good @ this

jumpingbean - 951 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) you'll be able to do it. My fiance went back to work the day after we came home my dd was 2 days. He works nights and we don't live together. It's hard but you learn to manage because it's for your child and you will soon learn everything comes after your child. Maybe when your husband is home you could cook up meals and freeze them easy dinner when the baby won't allow you to cook.

angie2008 - 951 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) It's hard to hear, you will just be fine. WHile your mom is there one day, tell her to let you do everything and to just hold off a bit. You will see that you will manage and get your own schedule going. I was very scared too after my mom left too.

jastinel - 951 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) hi, dont be afraid,you are his mother now and its your job to take care of him,you will know exactly what to do when your mom leaves,it may seem hard at first but it will get easy,my in laws are in egypt they could not come when i had my son,my husband went back to work and it was just me,i did what i thought needed to be done,your baby will be two months old so it is easier then 2 days old like me,but we are all here to help you if you need it,do you breastfeed or bottle,that makes a huge difference there,also cooking cleaning do what you can your husband will understand,maybe he can order takeout for a while,its sounds like both of you are busy but take a deep breath and everything will be ok ,trust me it will,maybe if you have freinds invite them over to maybe sit with you to keep you company let me know how its going

SazaUK - 951 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) You will be fine. I know exactly how you are feeling because I felt the same way when my SO went back to work after his paternity leave. He was working 12 hour shifts at night and then sleeping most of the day and he still does. He went back to work when Liam was 2 weeks old. It is hard and sometimes it may take you a while to figure out why you LO is crying but it will come to you and it does get easier.

abbyquiet - 951 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) it may seem impossible, but don't worry too much. because you'll be able to do it. it's not easy but your maternal instincts will kick in and you'll be able to figure out most of it pretty easily. you'll do what you have to in the end.
